Answer:

0.003.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Lacey measured a neighborhood park and made a scale drawing. The scale she used was 3 millimeters = 1 meter.

To find the scale factor, we will convert 1 meter into millimeters as:

We know that 1 meter equals 1000 millimeters.

\text{Scale factor}=\frac{\text{Drawing side}}{\text{Original side}}

\text{Scale factor}=\frac{3}{1000}

\text{Scale factor}=0.003        

Therefore, the scale factor of drawing is 0.003.

snow_lady [41]

Answer:  46

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Margin of error : E= 17

Standard deviation : \sigma=70

Critical value for 90% confidence level :z_{\alpha/2}=1.645

Formula to find sample size is given by :-

n=(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma}{E})^2

i.e. n=(\dfrac{(1.645)\times 70}{17})^2

\Rightarrow\ n=45.880700692\approx46

Hence, the required minimum sample size = 46.

Let X1,..., Xn be a simple random sample from a distribution with density function Svorvo-1 O<331 fx (2:0) = otherwise where
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The method of moment (MOM) estimator as:  \mathbf{\hat {\theta} =(\dfrac{\overline X}{1-\overline X})^2}

\overline X = \dfrac{4}{9}

\mathbf{\hat {\theta} =\dfrac{16}{25} }

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the correct format for the probability density function is:

fx(x ; \theta) = \left \{ {{\sqrt{\theta x}^{\sqrt{\theta}-1}}\ \  0 \leq x \leq  1 \atop {0} \  \   \ \  \ \  \ otherwise } \right.

where θ > 0 is an unknown parameter.

(a) The MOM estimator can be calculated as follows:

E(X) = \int ^1_0x. \sqrt{\theta} \ x^{\sqrt{\theta}-1} \ dx

E(X) = \int ^1_0 \sqrt{\theta} \ x^{\sqrt{\theta}} \ dx

E(X) = \dfrac{\sqrt{\theta} }{\sqrt{\theta} +1 } ( x ^{\sqrt{\theta}+1})^1_0

E(X) = \dfrac{\sqrt{\theta} }{\sqrt{\theta} +1 }

suppose E(X) = \overline X

Then;

\overline X = \dfrac{\sqrt{\theta} }{\sqrt{\theta} +1 }

\dfrac{1}{\overline X} = \dfrac{\sqrt{\theta} +1  }{\sqrt{\theta}}

\dfrac{1}{\overline X} =1 +  \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{\theta}}

making \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{\theta}} the subject of the formula, we have:

\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{\theta}} =\dfrac{1}{\overline X}  - 1

\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{\theta}} =\dfrac{1-\overline X}{\overline X}

\sqrt{\theta} =\dfrac{\overline X}{1-\overline X}

squaring both sides, we have:

The method of moment (MOM) estimator as:  \mathbf{\hat {\theta} =(\dfrac{\overline X}{1-\overline X})^2}

b) If the observations are \dfrac{1}{2}, \dfrac{1}{3}, \dfrac{1}{2}

Then,

\overline X = \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}+ \dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{2}}{3}

\overline X = \dfrac{\dfrac{3+2+3}{6}}{3}

\overline X = \dfrac{\dfrac{8}{6}}{3}

\overline X = \dfrac{8}{6} \times \dfrac{1}{3}

\overline X = \dfrac{8}{18}

\overline X = \dfrac{4}{9}

Finally, the point estimate of the estimator \theta is

\mathbf{\hat {\theta} =\begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{\dfrac{4}{9}}{1-\dfrac{4}{9}} \end {pmatrix}^2}

\mathbf{\hat {\theta} =\begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{\dfrac{4}{9}}{\dfrac{5}{9}} \end {pmatrix}^2}

\mathbf{\hat {\theta} =\begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{4}{5} \end {pmatrix}^2}

\mathbf{\hat {\theta} =\dfrac{16}{25} }
